Anna put Xaviar to sleep and came out, only to find Jeremy Thompson leaning against the wall by the doorway, which made her pause. She gently closed the door before asking in a low voice, "Why are you here?"

Anna's face instantly flushed with heat. She always felt that Jeremy's words implied—she had the potential to be Xaviar's mother.
"You... not going back?" Anna asked quietly, already walking towards the stairwell.
"Aren't you still going out?" Jeremy raised an eyebrow.
